The villagers all said that they heard it, and they also hoped to be able to plant and take back some rice, so that they would not be afraid of starvation.

"There is one more good news to tell you." The village chief saw that the subjects nodded one after another, and he smiled with satisfaction, "The emperor sympathizes with our people, so he has exempted us from taxes for these two years."

This was great news. When the villagers heard the news, they all had bright smiles on their faces. They all knelt down and shouted, "Long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live."

Without paying taxes, they can save a lot of food and don't have to worry about going hungry.

The village head said some more words to the villagers before he asked his son to distribute the grain seeds and register his name.

After taking the grain seeds home, the villagers all prayed for the rain as soon as possible. As long as it rains, they can plant rice.

Maybe God really heard their prayers. Just half a month later, it rained heavily.

Seeing that it was raining, the villagers cheered and ran outside to get wet.

Even Li Qingfeng's three boys were no exception, they ran to the yard to play.

Liu Zhirou and Li Qingning also wanted to run out, but were stopped by Li Qingling.

They are relatively young, afraid that they will get sick, so they are not allowed to go out.

The two little ones could only watch the brothers play helplessly, envious in their hearts.

But when Li Qingling didn't pay attention, Li Qingning ran out with her short legs.

"Ah? Elder sister, my younger sister has gone out." Liu Zhirou looked at her younger sister who was giggling in the rain, and she stomped her feet anxiously.

Li Qingling raised his eyes and saw that Li Qingning became a little lunatic in the rain.

She shook her head helplessly, glanced at Liu Zhirou who was full of envy, she compromised, "Go if you want!"

After saying that, Liu Zhirou ran out and became crazy with Li Qingning.

"..." Unexpectedly, people are waiting here for her words!

Liu Zhimo came out to see this scene, he smiled, reached out and rubbed her head, and said indulgently, "Since they are happy, let them play for a while, and when I come back later, ask grandpa to prescribe some medicine for you." Just drink it." This is the advantage of having a doctor at home, so you don't have to worry about the children getting sick and having to travel so far to the town.

Li Qingling glanced at him, "Why are you so talkative today? Huh?" Isn't he usually strict with the children

He stretched out his hand and tickled her fingers quietly, looked at the children laughing happily in the yard, and said gently, as long as they are happy.

If it wasn't for his status, he would have wanted to go out and experience it.

Li Qingling glanced at him sideways, and seeing his pink ears, she pursed her lips and smiled, grabbed his hand with her backhand, and made fun of him, "If you want to hold hands, do it generously, what are you afraid of?" It's a lot of fun.

She thinks she's going to be addicted.

With a bang, Liu Zhimo's face turned red. He dodged Li Qingling's eyes, cleared his throat and said, "I remembered that I haven't finished reading an article, so I'll read it first." hand, strode away.

Seeing his running back, Li Qingling couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Don't look at him as a calm and dark-hearted person, in fact, he is quite shy.

Every time she is molested by her, she blushes and runs away.

Sitting in the study, Liu Zhimo rubbed his face in annoyance, that little girl always teased him unexpectedly.

He didn't want to blush in front of her and lose the wind, but he couldn't control himself!

Why is that little girl so thick-skinned? Dare to tease him so calmly

If there is a next time, he will definitely go back to the teasing, and will not run away again.

Li Qingling didn't know that she had dug a hole for herself, and she would reap the bitter fruit she had planted herself.

"When will this rain last?" Li Qingling frowned, looking at the pouring rain outside. This rain continued for three days and three nights without any intention of stopping. If it continued, it would be It's really going to be a flood.

When the drought is over and it becomes a flood again, the common people really don't have to live.

"It's up to God to show face." The old man replied worriedly, "If God doesn't show face, then everyone has nothing to do."

What he is most worried about now is, after the rain, will it bring bad illness

He speeded up his hands, picked up a pair of medicines, handed them to Li Qingling, and asked Li Qingling to fry them, and each of them drank a bowl after the frying was done.

Li Qingling looked at the sad old man, "Old man, are you worried about the plague?"

She had read the news before that after the earthquake, the dead had to be burned together, just to prevent the formation of a plague.

In this natural and man-made disaster, the dead must not be properly buried. After being watered by rain, the germs can easily spread.

The old man hummed, and stood at the door with his hands behind his back, watching the torrential rain outside, his brows wrinkled into a word of Sichuan.

He hoped he was worrying too much.

Seeing the old man's worried look, Li Qingling's heart sank.

Many people died in the previous plague, and she really couldn't imagine another plague this time.

Maybe it is not an exaggeration to describe it as hell on earth.

"Old man, you can prepare more of these medicines. I want to send them to the villagers so that they can also take precautions." Li Qingling thought for a while before saying that it is not enough for them to take precautions by themselves, the whole village prevents them together is the best. .

Otherwise, if everyone in the village is infected with the plague, it will spread to their homes sooner or later.

"Okay, I'll match you here."

Li Qingling responded, and went to the kitchen to decoct the medicine. After the decoction was finished, everyone in the family drank a bowl.

The two little guys held their noses and didn't want to drink when they smelled the bitter medicine.

When Li Qingling saw them, she threatened them that if they didn't take the medicine, they would get sick, and if they got sick, they would have to drink more bitter medicine.

As soon as she threatened her like this, the two little guys shook their bodies and said with a bitter face that they wanted to drink.

"That's good!" Li Qingling handed it to them, and felt relieved when she saw that they drank it.

After she cleaned up all the bowls, she gave the medicine to Liu Zhimo, and asked him to deliver the medicine to the village head's house, and told the village head about the situation, and the village head would know what to do.

Liu Zhimo nodded, took the medicine, put on his coir raincoat, and went out in the heavy rain.

The village head was standing at the gate with a sad face watching the torrential rain outside. He was surprised when he saw Liu Zhimo coming against the rain.

"Zhimo, come in!" The village head yelled loudly, "It's raining so hard, why are you here? Are you looking for me?"

Liu Zhimo took off the coir raincoat on his body, put it away, and then took out the medicine prepared by the old man from his arms.

"Grandfather of the village head, when I was fleeing in Songshan, I rescued a doctor, and now he is temporarily staying at my house." He pushed the medicine in front of the village head, "This is the medicine he prepared for us to prevent the plague, you give it to People in the village, let them all drink it!"

When the village chief heard Liu Zhimo's words, his heart skipped a beat, and he asked nervously, "Zhimo, did that doctor say there would be a plague?" Thinking of the plague a year ago, he couldn't bear to I couldn't help shivering.

If there is another plague, there will really be no living people in Niutou Village.

"This can't be determined, it's just for precaution." Liu Zhimo didn't say anything dead, after all, will this happen? No one can guarantee it, "Grandpa, the village chief, think about it, before natural disasters and man-made disasters, so many people died, and they were not dealt with properly, and now there is another heavy rain..."

The village head fully understood what he hadn't finished speaking.

He nodded with a heavy heart, and said that he would definitely put the medicine down, and told the villagers to drink it well.

"Then please trouble Grandpa Village Chief." Liu Zhimo looked at the increasingly aged Village Chief, and he sighed in his heart, "Grandpa Village Chief, then I'll go back first."

"Okay, it's raining heavily, let's go slowly!"

Liu Zhimo hummed, put on his coir raincoat again, and walked into the heavy rain again.

As soon as Liu Zhimo left, the eldest son of the village chief came out and asked the village chief worriedly, "Father, there won't be another plague this time, right? I don't know if the doctor Liu Zhimo said is reliable or not." Reliable?"

"No matter what, we must pay attention to this matter." The village chief looked up at his eldest son, "Zhimo can still think of the villagers, which proves that he has our village in his heart. You have to be more polite, you know?" He is old now, and his health is even worse after the previous escape. The position of village head is to be handed over to his son. He hopes that after he leaves, his son will treat him politely. Liu Zhimo's family, don't lose the hearts of Liu Zhimo's family.

His vision is unmistakable, Liu Zhimo's family can go further.

Befriending them will only be beneficial and harmless.

The elder son of the village chief only nodded his head, and he almost swore to the sky, "Father, I know, I will treat their family with courtesy, so you can rest assured!" In the previous natural disaster and man-made disaster, the whole tail and full beard came back alive, and they lived better than them, so you know how powerful they are.

No matter how brainless he is, he will never offend this kind of person!

The village chief smiled gratifiedly. Although his eldest son is not smart enough, he is willing to listen to persuasion, which is enough.

"You give these medicines to the villagers one by one, and tell them what they are used for. After listening to them, they will take them obediently."

He entrusted these matters to his eldest son in order to let him show up more in front of the villagers and make him easy to convince after taking over the position of village chief.

The eldest son of the village chief also understood this, he obediently responded, put on his coir raincoat and bamboo hat, and set off with the big bag of medicine in his arms.

He knocked on the door one by one, and explained the matter before giving the medicine. The villagers who heard his words nodded in fear, expressing that they would definitely drink it.

Some people even asked him again and again if he had any more medicine? Give them some more.
